"Damn it, it's finally here!"

Wu Di felt tears streaming down his face, but he had accidentally killed a Dragon-level monster and activated the system. The activation condition was too outrageous.

"Oh my god, it's really Mr. KING!"

"Seventh S-Class Hero, the strongest man on Earth! Mr. KING, you're my idol, please shake my hand!"

Before he knew it, residents from the surrounding houses all came out, surrounding Wu Di. The excitement of the crowd was evident.

"Mr. KING, thank you for saving our lives."

Smile Man walked up to Wu Di and bowed deeply. When he regained consciousness, he had just seen KING instantly kill the suspected Dragon-level monster with one kick.

"Leave the rest to you all. I have something very important to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

Seeing the growing crowd, Wu Di casually instructed them and prepared to slip away, but the area was already packed.

"Didn't you hear? Mr. KING has important matters to attend to!"

"Make way! Make way!"

A path immediately opened up in the crowd. Wu Di, focused on studying the newly activated system, waved his hand and quickly left amidst the admiring gazes of everyone.

"Is KING trying to give us the credit?"

Smile Man looked at KING's departing back with admiration in his eyes, then he made a phone call.

"What did you say? A Dragon-level monster?"

At the Hero Association headquarters, Jace's surprised voice rang out.

"Yes, it's all your fault for inaccurate intelligence. The monster's level was set too low, and the three of us almost died there."

Smile Man's tone was full of complaints.

"But if it really was a Dragon-level monster, how did you escape?"

Jace was puzzled. After all, the probability of a Dragon-level monster appearing was extremely low, and three heroes were still alive. It was possible they had made a mistake.

"Fortunately, we ran into KING. He killed the monster instantly with one blow."

"You mean KING?"

Jace's pupils constricted slightly. At this moment, the customer service lady, Maria, immediately reminded him.

"That's right, we also received intelligence that KING made a move, and he does indeed reside in City M."

"I see, it's truly a blessing in disguise. It's great to have KING on our side!"

Jace breathed a sigh of relief. After all, a Dragon-level monster could cause immense damage, and even ordinary S-Class heroes would have difficulty dealing with it alone. However, for the strongest man on Earth, even a Dragon-level threat might not be enough.

"Ari ari? What did you just say?"

A proud, petite loli in a qipao, emitting a green glow, floated in the air, looking at Jace with a questioning gaze.

"Tatsu... Miss Tatsumaki?"

Tatsumaki, the Second S-Class Hero, twenty-eight years old, a Psychic.

"It's just a mere Dragon-level monster. From now on, just call me when you encounter something like this. Honestly, KING always steals all the spotlight."

Little Tatsumaki said with disdain. Jace wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Hahaha, Tatsumaki, you are indeed the strongest weapon recognized by our Hero Association."

Jace chuckled awkwardly. He dared not offend this little ancestor, or the Hero Association itself might be demolished.

"Hmph, of course. When KING arrives, I'll show him what true 'strongest on Earth' really means."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tatsumaki flew out of the operation room.

"Talent Fusion System?"

Wu Di returned home and brought up the system interface, studying it carefully.

"Congratulations to the host for successfully activating the system. You can earn talent points by killing monsters and exchange them for various talent skills."

"You darn system, do you know what I've been through these past two years?"

Wu Di recalled his two years of hiding and dodging, his eyes filled with tears.

"The host only needs to kill any monster to activate the system."

"Ah?"

Wu Di's expression froze. He had thought he needed to kill a Dragon-level monster to activate it.

"Then why the hell didn't you say so earlier?"

Wu Di gritted his teeth.

"The key is, you didn't ask."

"Fine, I didn't ask, right? I'm done for, you can find someone else."

Clang~ Wu Di grabbed a knife from the kitchen. A man lives and dies by his principles. He raised the knife and was about to stab himself in the neck.

"For the first system activation, a beginner's gift package is being granted to the host, which may contain S-Class talents."

"Goodbye!"

"Another ten thousand talent growth points are being gifted to the host, which can directly raise the S-Class talent value to one hundred percent."

"It's useless, I said I won't live, so I won't live!"

"Ding~ A free S-Class talent has been unlocked."

"Hmm... I'll just drink the medicine then, it doesn't hurt!"

"Then go die."

"??? There's really nothing left?"

Seeing that the system was no longer responding, Wu Di knew he had extorted enough. He figured he wouldn't get any more even if he pushed it.

"You said it yourself!"

Wu Di stared intently at the interface, browsing through the various talent abilities. There were talents from S-Class down to C-Class heroes, but he naturally disdained talents below S-Class.

For example, the seventeenth S-Class hero, Sexy Prisoner, had talents for physical strength enhancement, Angel Form, and strongest combat power when completely naked, with the attached skill Angel Barrage.

As for the relatively high-ranked second S-Class hero Tatsumaki's Psychic Powers and the first S-Class hero Blast's Laser Eyes, he had both. However, what most attracted Wu Di's eyes was a talent skill from a C-Class hero.

Second C-Class Hero, Saitama, talent skill: Normal Punch, Serious Punch.

"He even has this!"

Wu Di's eyes sparkled. After all, Saitama's Normal Punch could instantly kill a peak Dragon-level threat.

Exchanging S-Class talents required at least ten thousand talent points, and the growth cap for talents was one hundred percent. The specific talent points needed varied.

The talent skills unlocked just now were still weak, but the higher the talent value, the stronger the power would become, eventually even surpassing the hero themselves.

"System, I won't say much else, I just want Saitama's talent skill."

"Ding~ Saitama's talent skill cannot be exchanged. It can only be obtained by triggering and completing a mission."

The system's cold voice shattered Wu Di's fantasy. Fortunately, he still had the S-Class talent and the beginner's gift package to fall back on, so it shouldn't be too bad.

"Forget it, unlock the beginner's gift package for me!"

As Wu Di watched with eager anticipation, the system interface began to spin, and an "S" logo appeared before his eyes.

"Ding~ Congratulations to the host for opening the beginner's gift package and obtaining the S-Class talent, Immortality."

"Hahaha! Heaven is helping me!"

Wu Di was overjoyed. This was probably the best talent for him at the moment.

Eighth S-Class Hero, Zombieman, Talent: Immortality (can heal from any injury), Talent Growth Value: Zero Percent.
